I'm a criminal
Well, looks like I'm a criminal.
The deadline for signing up for the ACA has come and gone. The deadline was originally set for the 23rd, but Barry extended it 24 hours, without Congressional approval (again), to midnight of the 24th.
As a full time student and as an independent/self-employed person, there is 1) NO-WAY I could/can afford the ACA and 2) I absolutely refuse to kowtow and sign up for this bilious and ridiculous measure, that everyone, I mean EVERYONE knows is nothing more than crap and only hurts, rather than helps this country.
So, if you don't hear from me for awhile, I've probably been picked up by an IRS SWAT team and am sitting in one of the many FEMA camps around the country. But I can guarantee you, they won't be taking me without a fight.
Any other criminals out there?

Don't worry we'll put the elite, but unclassified, Troop 323 on notice for rescue. Just need you to insert one of these:

WHEW !!!!!!
I'm glad Troop 323 has been placed on Stand-By.
I wouldn't want anyone one else to rescue my bacon from the fire.

Ouch! Given the current proclivity towards body cavity searches for misdemeanors, I guess that means Sdiver is in for "interesting" times.

But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

VA Medical Care / TriCare Status
It goes without saying all of us who have VA healthcare benefits / TriCare (Retired) should make sure all our "stuff" is up to date and fully understandable to us.
We can do this a number of different ways. But, I've found, the best is making an appointment (if possible due to location) to go face to face with a TriCare advocate or your VA benefits team (i.e. OIF/OEF/OND assigned advocate if you are a veteran of GWOT).
A phone call to TriCare is next best for updates / confirmation / corrections.
If you are in the SOCOM Care Coalition check with your assigned advocate (contact the Care Coalition in Tampa if you're unsure of your status - their number(s) are on the website).
I'm doing my review right after the first of the year.

The only method they have to collect the fine is to take it out of a refund. Set up your taxes so you pay enough not to get a refund.

Pay little enough.
Increase the number of withholding allowances (perfectly legal).
